by osmosis: national security experience

you know, it's sunday evening. i'm getting ready to go out for dinner. and genuinely wasn't planning on blogging about palin since her genitalia is identical to hillary clinton's, figured i was expected to unite behind the he/she ultra-conservative machine being that i, too, am woman.

but as i was skimming through news online, i came across this week's george stephanopoulos interview with potential first lady cindy mccain. sarah palin has national security experience b/c alaska is in close proximity to russia:

 

so on this lovely night with no budlight in hand on the streets of ny i will find one of 18 million cracks to fall through.

where to see them

new art available: 100+ new works mostly small format. i've rented several small rooms to house my artwork in the building across from trump soho.

clearing the wooster place to make room for film screenings this fall. i'll be back next week with images online and details.

my busiest summer ever is officially over.
have a nice holiday weekend.

when the democrats are in town

not sure if this is funny or embarrassing or plain genius but the city of denver is suspending marijuana laws during the dnc convention: denver post article

and what will minneapolis suspend for the gop? common sense?

pontificating

thought i'd write about some politics since it's been a while.

nader: makes a living out of running. as his 2nd job. he doesn't campaign, he just runs.

obama: why is the bush admin adopting barack's ideas? for example: iraqi withdrawal timetable? wasn't bush staunchly against one when asked a few months ago?

mccain: if you liked the past 8 years of bush policies, if you agree with republican civil, economic, international, etc. policies.. if woman rights are of little importance to you- we see mrs. obama everywhere, but where's mccain's wife? oh then there's that minor incident of him calling his wife the 'c' word. apparently the term is solidly ingrained in his regular vocabulary.. enough to blurt it out in a radio interview. classic right-wing hypocrisy: therealmccain.com

we have visitors. so staying in jersey until the end of the month with family, where i'll be force-fed breakfast and pontifications.

it's been a busy past few weeks

oops. it's been a busy past few weeks.

just wrapped up some projects with a design firm here and in d.c. we've been working all summer on them and they are spectacular. this website is being updated and many more installation photos will be available.

some updates

we're kicking off the gallery project here in the city early next year. not sure where it's going but i'm leaving that up to josh the anti-elitist

have some new short films which will screen in september just as soon as i stop using the soho wooster st place as a storage.

and art. i have about 25 new mixed media paintings being resin-ated (is that even a word?) and moved to chelsea for an exhibit this fall. these will be the last paintings for the year. i hate to say it but i desparately need a break. had one mini vacation to dallas. can i stop working?

speaking of breaks-- i'm taking time off to work on films 'til the end of the year. but i just mentioned that. hmm.. haven't slept much in the past few days.

going to get some shut eye before my 10pm pick-up. later.
